I just put 2 new axe handles on.. Their about 30" long... I put them on,, tapped the back side til it bottomed out,,put the wedges in til flush..
NOW,,,--- Should I cut the leftover sticking out the top, ( approx. 1/2" to 3/4" ) , or leave it alone,, and would soaking it in water or oil swell the wood and wedge to keep them tight../???????????????
Thanks sodi.
